Moscow, Nov 11 (UNI/Sputnik) Iraqi Kurdistan and Baghdad are discussing the possibility of sending a plane to Belarus to return citizens, Xosawi Bebekir, a representative of the Kurdish Democratic Party in Russia, told Sputnik on Thursday.

The Kurdistan Ministry of Internal Affairs is negotiating with Baghdad on preparations for sending an airplane there in order to return those who agree [to come back].
